1/22/2025
Absolutely great, the kids there are amazing too. I could count on one hand how many times I saw someone get even remotely bullied, and each one would be a stretch too. Overall, just a great school
7/22/2024
Fox Chapel High School is a very well known school among people in the area. The teachers are very hit or miss, however, regardless of the teachers you have you get a good education. The building itself is newly renovated and very nice. The school offers a lot of activities and ways to get involved. Overall a pretty good school.
3/11/2024
My experience at this school has been amazing. All the teachers I have had or have worked with have been so accommodating. Financial need is handled quite well which helped me a lot to afford school activities and events.
GreatSchools Reviews
9/4/2025
The main problem I have is the people that attend the school are very, very cliquey. It’s so bad to the point where you are in a clique, or you’re not. They range from the 80-person boy clique spanning multiple grades to the small, intermediate 4–6-person girls’ clique. Most of the time, people do n...

Great school. One of the best in Pennsylvania, as far as bullying goes it’s almost non existent.
9/14/2018
I graduated from this school some years ago. My kids attend this school, relatives graduated from Fox Chapel. Overall one of the best schools around. You will not find a better school in the region. 10 out of 10. The Teachers there make the school what it is today.
10/9/2016
Definitely a class divide. It's very cliquey and there's a large disparity between the Sharpsburg kids and the FC kids. Like others have mentioned, extracurriculars are expensive. It's basically a private school masquerading as a public school. That being said, the AP options are fantastic and the m...
